Antonio, a young man fleeing Sicily after avenging his father's murder, embarks on a harrowing journey to New Orleans with the help of Jesuit priests expelled from his homeland. But the promise of a fresh start quickly sours as Antonio finds himself entangled in a volatile clash of cultures, corruption, and crime. In the late 19th century, Italian immigrants in New Orleans faced hostility, exploitation, and a brutal system of indentured servitude. Antonio becomes a witness to history as a bitter feud over the docks spirals into violence, culminating in the assassination of Irish police chief David C. Hennessy. The ensuing trial of nine Italians and the shocking lynching of eleven innocent men ignited international outrage, threatening to sever ties between the United States and Italy. Caught in the crossfire of prejudice and power struggles, Antonio fights to survive while grappling with his own past and future. His journey weaves a gripping tale of resilience, betrayal, and the enduring hope for justice. Cobblestones: A New Orleans Tragedy is a poignant reminder of the human cost of intolerance and the courage it takes to rebuild a life from ashes. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/new-orleans/an-evening-with-author-sr-perricone-author-of-cobblestones-a-new-orleans-tragedy/200029403012458 - **Event Categories**: art, literary-art - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 17 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket URL**: https://friendsofthecabildo4.ticketing.veevartapp.com/tickets/view/list/author-lecture-sr-perricone-cobblestones-a-new-orleans-tragedy?utm_source=AllEvents.in&utm_medium=event-discovery-platform&utm_campaign=new+orleans-events ## Event venue details - **city**: New Orleans - **state**: LA - **country**: United States - **location**: 523 St. Ann Street - Jackson Square, New Orleans, LA, United States, Louisiana 70116 - **lat**: 29.95803 - **long**: -90.0625 - **full address**: 523 St. Ann Street - Jackson Square, New Orleans, LA, United States, Louisiana 70116 ## Event Organizer details - **affiliate_id**: 2 - **organizer**: 1850 House Museum Store (https://allevents.in/org/1850-house-museum-store/20231213) ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: banner - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events5/banners/fd8bda41228c7d3bcee2a614b77c46b9958ab0e596674a8fc85c4407820ecd4d-rimg-w1200-h675-dc131416-gmir?v=1772332697 - **Alt text**: thumbnail - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events5/banners/37c52eb21f30a443bab30fe9cde1e045c7c38aa96b6237b043078db149c642b5-rimg-w300-h300-dc141416-gmir?v=1772332728 ## FAQs - **Q**: When is the event happening? - **A:** Wed, 11 Mar, 2026 at 05:30 pm - **Q**: Where is the event happening? - **A:** 523 St. Ann Street - Jackson Square, New Orleans, LA, United States, Louisiana 70116 - **Q**: Who is organizing the event? - **A:** 1850 House Museum Store - **Q**: What type of event is this? - **A:** art, literary-art - **Q**: Where can I find ticket details about An Evening with Author S.R.
